Guys:
In my pursuit to restore my '68 I've replaced all rubber vacuum and hose on the engine bay. I'm up to the wipers and I'm looking for the right set up for the washer nozzle. It appears that starting in '69 here was a long brass tube running up the wiper arm with nozzle up near the wiper blade. My question is what is the right style nozzle for a '68 (is this the right picture?). And where does in mount on the arm? Anyone's picture would be appreciated
Those are corect however they mount to the underside of the wiper grille, not the wiper arm. The 68 wiper grille is unique. I forget what is what but early or late 68s used 2 different wiper nozzles on the same car. One was straight and the other side curved like your picture. Again, I forget early or late but some 68s had both curved. Hope that helps.
I found these pictures on an ebay ad for a 68 only wiper grille.

These early / late '68 parts are a real PITA. I've found Im a late '68 for most parts. I don't have the build sheet to tell dates but I did find some markings under the truck lid indicating a date of 2-15-68, but talking to some NCRS guys that was a date of subassembly.. but still close to a final build date.
Thanks for the info as I couldn't find a spot on the arm to screw it in.

My 68 had no windshield washer pump, hoses, or nozzles. It had a post 68 wiper grill. Using the AIM and pictures on Ebay I modified my wiper grill and installed the correct 68 nozzles. Had to notch the grill and tap screw holes for the nozzles. Not sure if it was worth the time and effort but its done.
